Beleaguered Jeremy Corbyn faces yet another day of misery as he is grilled by MPs on anti-Semitism.

The under-fire Labour leader will appear before the Commons home affairs committee on Monday afternoon to discuss the racism crisis which has gripped Labour over recent months.

It comes just days after a Jewish Labour MP walked out of an anti-Semitism event in tears after being attacked by a Corbyn supporter.

Stoke MP Ruth Smeeth slammed Mr Corbyn - who was speaking at the event - for failing to intervene and said: “Until today I had made no public comment about Jeremy’s ability to lead our party.

“But the fact that he failed to intervene is final proof for me that he is unfit to lead, and that a Labour Party under his stewardship cannot be a safe space for British Jews.”

Hours after the event Mr Corbyn was also criticised by Jewish leaders including the Chief Rabbi after appearing to equate Israel with Islamic State.

He said in his speech: “Our Jewish friends are no more responsible for the actions of Israel or the Netanyahu Government than our Muslim friends are for those of various self-styled Islamic states or organisations.”

A senior source in Mr Corbyn’s camp confirmed the leader was referring to ‘organisations’ like IS, Hamas, Hizbollah and al-Qaida.

Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis said: “The comments by the Leader of the Labour Party , however they were intended, are themselves offensive, and rather than rebuilding trust among the Jewish community, are likely to cause even greater concern.”

And his predecessor Jonathan Sacks said Mr Corbyn’s comments were a “demonisation of the highest order, an outrage and unacceptable”.

The inquiry into anti-Semitism has already heard from Labour’s former London Mayor Ken Livingstone, who was suspended from the party earlier this year after claiming Hitler was ‘a Zionist’.
